[Quest Complete. Entering the game’s ending screen.]
[Note: The scenes shown will be acted out by virtual avatars. Once the avatars return to their correct bodies, their memories of the game will disappear.]
Just as Xia Xi and the other three passed through the hidden passage in the bathroom and arrived at the fragmented platform on the third floor, the moment they discovered the special item, the game space rang out with the sound of the quest ending.
Right after that, the four of them found themselves teleported to a place that looked like a movie theater. All their memories of the real world had also been fully restored. The big screen in front of them was showing none other than themselves inside the game space.
Their bodies had been sent back to the “real world” simulated by the game space, and they started moving on their own.
…
[Ending 1: I Am the Real Xiao Cha!]
“Xiao Cha! Over here, over here.”
Xia Xiao Cha was carrying her little school bag. She looked behind her in confusion, but when she saw the face of the person who had spoken, she broke into a sweet, adorable smile.
“Senior Bai Yue~”
Bai Yue dashed over to Xia Xiao Cha in a flash, raised her hand, and shook the bag she was holding.
“I brought your favorite braised pork soup dumplings and pan-fried buns, you know~”
“You’re the best, Senior!!!”
“Hehe, let me tell you, my brother lost it again today. He keeps insisting his name is Bai Xiao Cha and that he swapped bodies with you, and he keeps going on about some game. I think he’s just been playing too many dirty games.”
“Ha…haha, don’t worry about him. Boys, you know? A little bit of chuunibyou is normal.”
The two of them ate as they walked toward the teaching building, and they happened to run into Luo Xin Yu, who was on duty wearing her student council armband.
“Good morning, Senior Xin Yu.”
“Mm-hmm, hurry inside. In a few more minutes, you’ll be counted as late.”
After entering the teaching building, Xia Xiao Cha parted ways with Bai Yue, and the expression on her face fell.
That’s right. Her memories of the body-swapping game with Bai Xiao Cha hadn’t disappeared. Which meant… the two of them hadn’t returned to their correct bodies!
“So… am I really not Xia Xiao Cha…”
Xia Xiao Cha looked troubled. In her memories, she was clearly Xia Xiao Cha, but why did the game decide this wasn’t her body?
“Xiao Cha, what are you thinking about? Here, a little cake for you~”
That was her deskmate.
“Xiao Cha, let’s go feed the school’s little kitten together tonight, okay? It’s so cute.”
That was the classmate in front of her.
“Xiao Cha, c-can I invite you to watch a movie this weekend? My treat!”
Mm… that was some love-struck guy.
Xia Xiao Cha enjoyed this feeling of being loved, cherished, and adored by everyone because she was cute.
So… oh well. Living as an adorable little girl isn’t so bad. I’ll just go with that… As for Bai Xiao Cha… heh, becoming a boy isn’t so terrible either.
…..
That was the end of the first scene.
Inside the movie theater, Xia Yue and Luo Xin Yu looked at Xia Xi with knowing smiles, while Xia Xi glanced awkwardly at Bai Xiao Cha.
“Big bro~ I didn’t know you liked being a little girl so much~”
Xia Yue flashed a teasing grin and poked her index finger at Xia Xi’s waist.
“That’s bull crap! Those were Xia Xiao Cha’s thoughts, what does that have to do with me, Xia Xi!”
Xia Xi forced a stern look on his face and refused to admit that was him, no matter what.
Come on, how could a tough guy like him ever want to turn into a little girl!
“Not listening, not listening~ ‘Xiao Cha, can I invite you to watch a movie together?’ Hahahaha~”
Xia Yue was laughing so hard she was practically doubled over.
She really never expected her own brother to have such a shameful moment. Score one for the blackmail folder~
Unlike Xia Xi’s embarrassment, Bai Xiao Cha just thought it was hilarious.
If she really did turn into Xia Xi, then she could easily pin Xia Yue down and have her way with her! That would be absolutely fantastic!
….
[Ending 2: No, Senior! Please Don’t!]
My name is Luo Xin Yu. I’m the president of the school’s student council, and everyone calls me Senior Xin Yu out of respect.
Of course, my identity doesn’t stop there…
I’m also… a huge pervert!
These little kids are way too easy to fool. It was so simple for me to push the original owner of this body down into the abyss.
Back in the Secret Room, I found a new special item.
[Special Item: “Touch” – You will swap bodies with the first person you touch. The swapped party will believe they are the original owner of the body. Lasts for ten minutes.]
If Xia Xi and the others had managed to drag it out past those ten minutes, they might have gotten Luo Xin Yu to tell the truth, but… heh, too bad for them~
“Ah, good morning, Senior Xin Yu! Have some soup dumplings~”
“Thanks, Bai Yue. You’d better get back to class, or you’ll be late.”
“Luo Xin Yu” nodded to Bai Yue, then shifted her gaze to Bai Xiao Cha.
“Xiao Cha, can you come over to my place tonight? I just bought some new desserts at home, and I’d love for you to try them.”
“O… okay.”
Bai Xiao Cha, who had lost all memories of that swapping game, nodded timidly.
Even though the way this senior looked at her felt kind of strange—kind of like the way some boys in her class looked at her—she had been to the senior’s house for desserts before. This time should be fine too.
Besides, the senior was such a gentle person. There was no way she had any nasty intentions. And since they were both girls, nothing could really happen between them…
And then…
“No, Senior! Please don’t!!!”
…..
Inside the movie theater.
“‘No, Senior! Please don’t!’ ~ Pfft hahaha~”
Without a doubt, Xia Yue was the one having the most fun watching this game.
No matter which ending came up, she had completed the quest and returned to her own body. So she was the only one who got to laugh at the other three—none of them got to laugh at her.
After the second ending finished, Bai Xiao Cha’s face was bright red.
She hadn’t expected that the version of her simulated by the game space would be so easily tricked into going to the home of Luo Xin Yu, who had turned into a huge pervert.
After all, who would ever think that such a beautiful, gentle senior was actually a pervert in disguise?
Still, even in real life, if Luo Xin Yu invited Bai Xiao Cha over for dessert, this silly little girl probably wouldn’t say no.
“Xia Yue! Stop laughing!!!”
Hearing Xia Yue laughing nonstop, Bai Xiao Cha finally couldn’t take it anymore and tackled her.
Because the seats had backrests, it looked more like Bai Xiao Cha had thrown herself into Xia Yue’s arms.
“I’ll laugh if I want to~ Come on, Xiao Cha, do it again—you know, the ‘No, Senior! Please don’t!’ thing~”
“AHHHHH! Xia Yue! Go die alreadyyy!!!”
Bai Xiao Cha, burning with embarrassment and anger, grabbed Xia Yue’s collar tie and shook it furiously.
Luo Xin Yu and Xia Xi watched from the side, snickering too.
Xia Xi was just glad someone else had been humiliated like him to keep him company, while Luo Xin Yu simply thought the two girls’ interaction was warm and funny.
